They won't. Mary Cheney is considered a traitor to the hard core lesbian community. The same as Tammy Bruce. They are hated more than President Bush. Neither fall in line with the conventional group think mentality of hard core gay activists.

I watched her interview on Fox last Sunday, and found her to be an extremely intelligent, articulate, and lovely woman.
She is her Daddy's best fan, and that is mostly what I like about her. Forget the sexual orientation; Mary Cheney is a very sincere person who deserves respect.

[weegee]

What emerges from reading Mary’s book is that the Vice President is an exemplar of how a parent should treat his gay child. When Mary first came out to her father, she writes, “the first words out of his mouth were exactly the ones I wanted to hear: ‘You’re my daughter and I love you and I just want you to be happy.’”

Hate the sin and love the sinner.

Do parents still shun their kids for having pre-marital sex and prevent them from bringing over their current sexual partner to family gatherings?

[weegee]

The current crop (baby boom onward) of leftists has openly declared themselves against "the establishment". Among those beefs was the institution of marriage (domesticity = slavery).

So if we seem skeptical of their "marriages for all", we have reasons to be suspicious.

That is so self-defeating isn't it. If they thought for 10 seconds they might realize that Mary Cheney and the whole Cheney family just might have something valuable to say - something that they could very well learn from.

She really loves her dad, doesn't she. I know what you mean about finding that so likeable about her.

Some of the things I've seen on TV show forums from lesbians about Mary are absolutely sickening. Then again, they also believe you can not be gay and be conservative.

Hopefully most parents truly love their kids and teach them to be self-respecting and responsible adults.

I've missed a lot of stuff on TV that I probably shouldn't regret(g). I find the hatred that comes from the left (or the hard right) very off putting. It's a shame that they can't find a way to rise above their hatred.

I saw her on some talk shows and as she spoke I forgot the fact that she was gay except for when she was asked about it. Otherwise, she seems pretty normal and down to earth.

One of the greatest gifts parents can give to their children is their unconditional love, as my mother and father gave to the five of us.

Mary Cheney is a very intelligent and articulate woman. Who cares what her sexual orientation is, except for people with an agenda to promote.

Nope, actully in my Generation, anyone who doesnt have PM sex are the ones considered different as opposed to those who do. Parents accept it as a part of life (in most cases)

Thanks. That's nice to know. I heard her on Sean Hannity and she came across as intelligent, articulate and well-prepared for the questions.

What a nice sentiment. I wonder if she would just as soon that no one knew?

[alnick]

even by social conservatives who know about his relationship with his lesbian daughter

Social conservatives would expect nothing less than that a father love his daughter.

I hope you're right. I've read too many posts that don't reflect much love at all.

In order words, this man showed great sensitivity to how his career choice might affect his lesbian daughter’s life.

And his sensitivity proved prescient in that John Kerry and the democrats did indeed take a cheap shot at Cheney through his daughter.

Ah yes, the scummiest attack in an already filthy election cycle.
